Aroma Housewares 6-Cup (Cooked yield ) / 1.2Qt. Select Stainless Pot-Style Rice Cooker, & Food Steamer, One-Touch Operation, White

I'm finally upgrading my various cookers to cook with stainless steel inner pots instead of non-stick pots. Today I used this rice cooker for the very first time. When first opening the package, I immediately noticed a couple of things. First, the looks like a quality cooker. Second, the cooker is smaller than I'm used to. It is only a 1.2 quart cooker whereas I'm used to 3 quart. But actually, the small size is perfect for one person. For dinner, I made 1 cup (before cooked) of brown rice. I also used the included stainless steel steam basket to steam some sardines, smoked oysters and a tomato. For the rice, I added 1 cup rice, 1 1/2 cup water and about a tablespoon of olive oil to prevent the rice from sticking to each other. Overall, I am impressed with the results. I didn't time how long it took to cook the rice but I say about 30-40 minutes. Upon uncovering, the rice looked great. They didn't stick to each other. However, the very bottom did have rice that was overcooked and stuck to the inner pot bottom. The steamed food was fine in temperature and taste. As for cleaning, I think having stainless steel help. I do have to soak the rice that sticks to the pot overnight. By morning, I expect them to easily come off. The stain steel basket was easy to clean with just liquid soap and water even though it got a little oily with the sardines and smoked oysters. As I mentioned, the inner pot is small. With just 1 cup of brown rice, the rice almost filled the pot. I figure if I was cooking white rice, that might even rise more and fill the pot. I haven't tried with white rice. Here is what I like and dislike of this rice cooker: Likes: ------- - made of good material and seems durable - stainless steel safer and no worry about non-stick coating anymore - small size perfect for 1 person Dislikes: ---------- - rice did stick to bottom of pot even after I added some olive oil to rice (but should clean off easily after soaked) I give the Aroma Housewares 1.2 QT stainless steel rice cooker 5 stars.

I don’t know how to cook good rice for nothing, and I wasn’t expecting this to be as good as it was b/c it’s only one button!! Let me tell youuuu, it’s such a good buy and worth the money for people that don’t wanna watch rice cook while trying to cook something else!!! Even though it’s stainless steel, the rice barely stuck to the pan afterwards. It’s basically dummy proof lol it wasn’t hard to use. OH!! And you don’t have to keep monitoring the rice, it stops cooking it for you. Not Ai, I think it’s a timer. Last thing I love how I can cook food other than rice in it. And the website gives you ideas on what to cook too!! Ok bye.

This little rice cooker is so amazing that I bought another one. We got rid of non stick in our homes a long time ago and Aroma was one of the few companies with a steel base. Not only does it cook perfect rice every single time, it is easy to clean and is well made to last. Thank you for an awesome product!

as expected, rice sticks like crazy, but that’s the price we pay to avoid nonstick polymers leeching into our food. it’s stainless, so it’s easy to clean and will likely last forever, but there is a hump in the middle to contact the heating element, and the manual says to be careful with vigorous cleaning as you may flatten it out and it won’t cook after that. so be careful. my main complaint is the size. most rice cookers come in a variety of sizes, but this one is one size. i cook for myself mainly, and even the minimum rice is way too much for one serving. not a big deal because it cooks fine with less rice and water, you just need to guess around to find the right amount to use. i would’ve loved to get a half size, but it is what it is. this one’s fine.

Good One for the price and serving the purpose well.Stainless steel bowl is really usefu

Adorable, easy to operate, durable, and makes the perfect amount of rice for a few days. The stainless steel pot is easy to clean, even if I mess up the amount of water and cake some rice to the bottom.

I have had an aroma rice cooker of this size for a few years now. It's actually the perfect size for a person like me - I eat rice most days, often for just myself or for 2-3 people. My cheapo one started giving inconsistent quality and I was concerned that the heating element was going out or one of the wires was getting old. I could have just bought another cheapo, but this rice cooker looked so much nicer. No non-stick coating to flake off, shiny and sleek looking. Even though it cost more than twice as much, I sprung for the stainless steel model. **That was a MISTAKE!** The rice always BURNS and sticks to the bottom of the pot!!! I have been using this style of automatic rice cooker since I was a little girl and I have NEVER seen rice burn like this. I tried all the tricks - greasing the bottom with oil or butter, more water, taking the rice pot out the second it clicked from "cook" to "warm" - it didn't matter. Every time we went to serve the rice, we would lose a good half inch, and scrubbing it is a total nightmare. I assumed that the unit was running too hot. But I inserted my old cheapo nonstick rice pot and magically, the next time I made rice, there was NO STICKING, NO BURNING! It came out perfectly fluffy and the pot was just as easy to clean as always. I can even let the pot run on keep warm for a bit before I return to the kitchen and serve it up. The main reason I want a rice pot are for convenience and to allow my children to make rice without my help. If I have to babysit the pot and it STILL burns, I would do better to just use a regular pot on the stove. Then at least it won't make a mess or become a fire hazard. Do yourself a favor and keep looking. If others have had better luck, then Aroma is producing an inferior product with inconsistent quality. My experience makes me want to go with a different brand next time. I'm so frustrated at the money I wasted.

Easy to use and love knowing there is no non stick coating to come off. Very good value and looks good too.

Stainless steel. No forever chemicals contaminating our rice. Non stick is great but not at the expense of your health. It cleans easy, nice and compact, simple rice cooker. Makes plenty enough rice for the 3 of us. I would buy again👍🏻

Lo he usado 3 veces y ya no funciona. No me dejan devolverlo y lo compre hace solo 3 meses

Pas de prise adaptée à la France pourquoi n’est ce pas spécifié sur la description du produit ! Indigne d’Amazon !

I tried to return as soon as i got it because the sockets were incompatible. They didn't pick it up nor refunded. I bought then and adapter just to learn that it's a stupid 110 volts appliance. It's ruined now and a complete waste of money.

Do not buy if you live in the United Kingdom. Product uses incompatible plugs and is 110v, does not specify this in any of the product description. Complete waste of time and money. Avoid at all costs.
